My 1st year bowhunting. Well i have only been out once this year. I bought a pse nova and decided to try my hand at bow hunting this year. I have been try to perfect my shooting but am having a problem. At 20yards i feel very confident. Yesterday i started practicing at 30yards. Yesterday my grouping was good and i was feeling good about my shooting. Today, i am all over the place at 30 yards. I am having a big problem holding my bow on the target. I shot about 20 shots yesterday and would say only 3 would not have killed the deer. Today, i shot 12 shots and would say only 2 would have killed the deer for sure.
I think it's due to my arms getting tired and weak from all the pulling back of the bow. What do you guys think? am practicing to much?
Is this normal, how much should i practice. I really want to get out in the woods with this bow, but unless i get a shot at 20 yards or less right now, i would not be comfortable taking the shot. I would like to get comfortable shooting at up to 35 - 40 yards.
